The CRKL extension module control box is an element of the underfloor heating / cooling
control system. The control box allows you to control 5 different zones. Number of controlled
zones can be increased up to 15 zones by connecting CRKL extension modules to the CRKL
unit which is equipped with a module system that controls the source of heating and cooling.
Each individual zone can be operated by one thermostat. Thermostat which require 230V
power supply have to be powered directly from control box. The spring clamps provide quick
and convenient wiring connections. The control box is designed to work with NC (normally-
closed) type actuators. It is recommended to mount it on a surface or on a DIN rail.

WARNING! DO NOT connect power supply to the CRKL power supply input when it is connected together with another CRKL.
CRKL power supply input have to be used only when control box extension works as standalone device.
1 . F U S E
Note: Replacement of the fuse to be carried out only when the control box is
disconnected from power supply (230 V ~).
Main fuse is located under the housing cover next to power supply terminals and secures the
control box and the devices connected to it. Use ceramic tube slow blow 250 V ROHS fuses
(5x20 mm) with nominal max current 2A. To replace fuse remove the fuse holder with a flat
screwdriver and pull out the fuse.
2 . P O W E R S U P P LY
Power supply for control box is 230 V ~ 50Hz.
Three wire installation should be made in
accordance with the current applicable
regulations.
The red LED will illuminate

The NSB (Night Set Back) function enables you automatically reduce the setpoint temperature
on non-programmable thermostats via programmable thermostat connected to the same
control box or an extension module. NSB function changes comfort to economic setpoint
temperatures for each thermostat individually. The programmable thermostat, e.g. installed
in the living room, sends a signal to the non-programmable thermostats through a control
box (by wires). Then, the non-programmable thermostats automatically reduce the setpoint
temperature according to the value set on them. The NSB terminal is marked with the clock
icon - all NSB terminals are connected together within control box. The NSB function works
only in a 4-wire installations (see connection diagrams).

Actuators wires should be plugged into the spring clamps of the respective zones. Maximum
current load for each zone is designed to handle up to 6 actuators with a power of 2W each.
With more actuators in one zone, an additional relay should be used to make sure that
actuators output will be not overloaded.
